So far we have three people that have made the same comment about not being the front view. I'm using copy comments as TP tomorrow.

The inventor also said it's "jif", and I ain't saying that either. Also, the patent doesn't indicate whther that's the front view or the back view. It's displaying a roll in a vacuum.

Toilet paper hanging haphazardly over the front of the roll provides a convenient place for a 3 inch spider to hide between the roll and hanging strip. The patent illustration is clearly meant as a sick joke.

Warning! Normies who can't digest radical ideas, don't click further.I keep the roll on its side (vertical, with circular face down).
Also, I don't use it to wipe my butt. I have a handheld water shower directing device (a.k.a. health faucet) for that.

I've never paid a single bit of attention to which way it goes on. I spit into the face of this entire debate and it's never done me any harm to do so. I'm a cat owner too. The roll goes on either way, it's fine, and I'll never change my mind.

People here be discussing the wrong thing, or am I the only one thinking that patenting a roll of paper is incredibly stupid?

It's a damn roll of paper. How much of a genius do you have to be to come up with that? People have been doing it for millennia, the only difference is that it used to be so expensive that no one would think of whipping their butts with it.

Why do we assume that is a frontal view?

It makes sense when you consider that they don't even have ball pens in the 19th century. People back then must be very stupid.
